platform and a community for the standardization and expansion of
digital media. Helix DNA consists of source code
developed over eight years by RealNetworks for the creation,
delivery and playback of digital media, as well as a set of
interfaces for building media-enabled applications. Helix Community
members use this source code to build media-capable products with
industry-leading technology, intellectual property and commonly
used interfaces.

The Helix Community offers source code of the Helix DNA under
both commercial community and open source licenses available at
www.helixcommunity.org. RealNetworks has also released a family of
products built on top of the Helix DNA platform including the Helix
Universal Server, and the RealOne Player. The Helix Community
software infrastructure is powered by the CollabNet SourceCast
environment.

Rob Lanphier is the Helix Community manger for RealNetworks. He
has been at RealNetworks for 7 years, working on many initiatives,
including co-authoring the RTSP specification, and working in the
W3C on both major versions of SMIL. Lanphier received his B.S. in
Computer Science from the University of Idaho.
